Top tips for time-saving on short trips


As micro-travel trends and tightening budgets see more and more of us taking short breaks, here are ten top tips to help you make the most of your precious time away.


1. Prioritise location

When time is short, you don’t want to be walking even 20 minutes more than necessary to reach local restaurants, beaches, countryside – or whatever tickles your fancy. So go ahead and choose that hotel or apartment a bit closer to your interests. Unless the plan is to lounge indoors the whole trip, how luxurious does the room really need to be?


2. Pack lightly


It sounds obvious if you’re only going away for a few days, but many of us are guilty of overpacking. Do you really need that extra choice of outfit? Check the weather ahead and prioritise lightweight, practical clothes that suit as many activities as possible. Wear heavy shoes, like walking boots, to travel in.


The smaller and more manageable your bag is, the faster you’ll be able to get around. From time gained not having to check luggage and wait for it at your destination, to easily packing again midway through or at the end of your break, to being able to run for a train if you need, the advantages are many.


3.Shop ahead


If you’re self-catering you may be able to buy essentials online through a local supermarket chain and arrange for the delivery to arrive just after you do. Alternatively, and at least, look up the nearest supermarket to your destination or en-route there, to ensure you don’t waste time trawling around looking for food shops when you have other sights to see. For foodies, this approach frees time to explore street markets and delicatessens, rather than spending ages finding a source for mundane items. And don’t forget: check with your accommodation whether any food will be there on your arrival. If there’s wine, crackers, fruit and cheese, you might not need to get supplies at all!
